Maintaining The Fertility in Soils.

There are q few rules in regard to
maintaining fertility which should be fol-
lowed. One is that all the unsold or I'M
fed portions Of crops should, IL possible be
returned TO the soil upon which they
grew, or an equivalent should be returned.
Thus, il wheat is raised, the grain sold
and the straw composted with the dune:oi
animals, we form q manure which returns
much that was removed by the crop. II
the straw be partly or wholly fed 10 ami
mails. still large portion finds its way
back to the soil. A portion OF the plant
food supply is irrevocably lost in the
grain sold. in the bones of the animals, in
the milk sold of the farm, etc. But we
can calculate very nearly what this loss is
and make it good at small expense if we
do not delay too long. II is much better
to feed than to sell hay and straw. because
the tax upon the soil is so much less, and
whoever does sell these products should
surely plan to buy fertilizers to make good
bis drafts upon the soil. Near cities it is
always easy to buy stable manure and this
is ordinarily the most economical. The
hay, grain and straw are thus returned,
the loss is not only made good, but the
condition Of this land is improving all the
time, for this is the natural result OF til

Lightness Of Tools.

In the selection OF tools aud machines.
lightness is too often overlooked. pro-
per design. strength aud good material are
essential; bnt to the proper working OF the
tool, liehtness Is equally important. An
over weigLty implement is clumsy one;
hence it makes work slower and more Ia
borious. Economy Of energy in the exc
cution OF work must be aimed at, and il
cannot be attained with uselessly heavy
tools. Manufacturers find iron cheaper
than wood; hence iron is often used when
wood would answer the purpose as. well,
and be lighter. 1t would be better to pay
little more for the implement, il neces
sary, and get wood in place Of iron. Some
thoughtlessly prefer iron to wood because
it occupies less space and its use makes q
heater looking implement Unfortunately
they please their eye at the expense OF
their teams or the amount OF work done.
Iron aud steel have their proper places.
and Tor various parts in many implements
are better than wood, but wood also has
its proper places, where IL is better than
iron or steel, and should be put 10 those
places. American Agricukwia

In 1928 the forest area Of Ohio WAS

In 1881 it was but ~ Is per cent. A
similar consumption OF the forests has
taken place in other states. 10 many cases
the flow OF streams has been lessened or
made ifregulsr by the removal Of the for
ests from their vicinity. Floods and
droughts have become more frequent and
destructive from the same cause, and
agriculture and manufacture have suffered
greatly in consequence.
The consumption OF the forests so far
exceeds their growth, that il no effective
measures are taken to check the decline,
the forests would entirely disappear with

OF the Northwest will hardly last till the
close OF the present century.

VIII Hooker Ride!

1t is now said that A. B. Valen-
tine of Remington is to join fortunes
with Levi in scrub race for Governor
and Lieutenant Governor, and the
latter, in defiance of Hooker's SOL
emn pledge to the convention of last
year that he would not be candidate,
is grooming every day for the race.
Now what the SITTER would like to
know is: Will Hooker, booted and
spurred, again ride? A good many of
G. WIS friends are anxiously await
ing his decision. The SITTER has
always given him the credit of poses
sing more honor and manliness than
his associations would seemingly
warrant, and regard it as his misfor-
tune, that like poor Tray, he is found
in bad company. He now has an
excellent opportunity of Kidding him
self of this stigma, and standing be-
fore the people as a man whose word
and pledges are given to be respected.
Will he do it? We shall see!

the National Cemetery adjacent to the
Soldiers Home, and where there are thou
sands of graves of the unknown dead
The road which leads to both of these
places was lined all day with old soldiers
hobbling along on canes and crutches, with
ladies' bearing baskets overlooking with
flowers, with troops of patriotic citizens
who carried garlands which they were to
place upon the graves of the dead. On
the wooded heights of Arlington, far to
the south, where 10 900 of the union dead
lie buried, loving hands were doing the
same work but the most notable SPOT in
all that long floral circuit was the tomb in
which rest the remains of Gen, Logan.
1t was the Mecca to which the footsteps
of thousands of friends and patriots
were turned. The cemetery is three miles
from the city, but distance seemed to de-

tomb itself was model of floral beauty.

TIE WAY OF TIE RAIN.

THE WAY OF THE RAIN.
heard an old Farmer talk one day,
Telling his listeners how
In the wide new country, far away
The rainfall follows the pillow.
"As fast rs they break 1t up, you see.
And turn the heart to the sun,
As they open the burrows deep and free,
And the tilage Is begun
"The earth grows mellow, and more and more
1t holds and sends to the sky
A moisture 1t never had before,
When Its face was hard and dry.
"And so wherever the ploughsharcs run
The clouds run overhead
And the soil that works and lets In the sun
With water Is always fed"
| wonder II the old farmer knew
The half of his simple word,
Or guessed the message that heavenly true,
Within II was hidden and heardS
II fell ON my ear by chance that day,
But the gladness fingers now,
To think 1t is always Gods dear way
That the rainfall follows the plough.
